  The Scotsman - S2 - Enjoying a Belle Epoch   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-24)
He describes the Belle & Sebastian fanbase as resembling "a church guild or a rotary club" and it was with this in mind - but mainly because he thought it would be a laugh - that Murdoch has devised a treasure hunt surrounding the band’s forthcoming live dates in Edinburgh, Manchester and London.
Belle & Sebastian are full of these idiosyncratic ideas, seemingly dreamed up on a whim which then acquire a life of their own.
It proved to be the perfect embodiment of Belle & Sebastian’s innocent, almost nostalgic approach to their art (they are named after a kids’ TV programme, after all) - as well as a rocking good time for all concerned.

 Mallarme, Manet, and the Belle Epoch in Paris
However, while both of these works were created in the 1860s, the greatest transformation of art and poetry from traditional to modern occurred during the Belle Epoch (1871-1914).
I believe that the friendships existing between artists and poets can be credited with contributing a great deal to the modern art and literature that came from Paris during the Belle Epoch.
In conclusion, the friendship between Mallarme and Manet was just a tiny representation of what was happening during the Belle Epoch in Paris.

Tea gowns, in sharp contrast to the contorted garments worn throughout the rest of the day, were corset-less, pastel in color, lacy and resembled lingerie.
In addition to the sexual intrigue that often times ensued during the height of the Belle Époque era, afternoon tea offered women the chance to bond and converse with other women outside of societal restraints.
While not meant to be a refuge from a corset, Belle Époque should certainly be knit in such spirits, accompanied by tea and friends.

 Scotland on Sunday - Review - A Belle epoch for Scottish music   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-24)
In their typically modest way, Belle and Sebastian were quick to play down their victory.
They are canny enough to know that in the Scottish music scene, Oscar-style weeping and thanks to all those who made it possible for their dreams to come true would be as welcome as an announcement that the bar had run dry.
Instead, Belle and Sebastian’s Stuart Murdoch diplomatically commented: “We don’t think for a moment that we are the best band in Scotland, but we are thrilled to be on a list with some of our favourite artists like Teenage Fanclub and the Cocteau Twins.
